 | | During his 16 years as director of the Riverside cinema, in Hammersmith, west London, Ed Lewis, who has died aged 55, gave the centre an identity that was a part of him, and gave much to the capital's film culture. |
 | | Ed brought people together through their cinematic stories; for him, the arts were a vital part of the community. |
 | | Ed was a socialist, a member of the board of the Notting Hill Housing Trust, an Italophile who revelled in the riches of other cultures, and a private and reserved man, of simple but refined tastes, who was also always sociable, hospitable, and a loyal and genuine friend. |
